book description:

The book has been developed from the findings of an EU research project, co-ordinated by the Potsdam Institute for Climate Change Studies and presents an integrated impact assessment of regulations, incentives, economic instruments and infrastructure measures on urban sprawl. Policies imposed by European, national and regional agencies will be investigated and options for improvement developed. This assessment is driven by finding robust answers to the following questions: bull; bull;What are recent trends and issues of sprawl (case studies on Liverpool, Stockholm, Leipzig, Warsaw, Ljubjana, Vienna, Athens)? bull;What aspects characterise European pattern(s) of urban sprawl? What are common indicators and variables across Europe? bull;Does a generalised mechanism exist which governs the European pattern of urban sprawl and can this scheme be formulated in terms of a formal qualitative model? bull;What specifies supportable forward-looking scenarios of urban sprawl with respect to sustainable development? How can stakeholders be involved to assess these ‘sustainable scenarios’? bull;What constitutes best practices with regard to the management of urban sprawl?
